"Saint Sebastian 2" is a renowned Baroque painting by the Italian artist Guido Reni, depicting the Christian martyr Saint Sebastian, who is traditionally shown tied to a tree and shot with arrows. This work is one of several versions Reni painted on this subject throughout his career, each reflecting the artist's evolving style and the changing tastes of the period. Created in the early 17th century, this particular painting is noted for its dramatic use of light and shadow, as well as its emotional intensity, which exemplifies the Baroque fascination with dynamic compositions and the theatricality of religious scenes.

In "Saint Sebastian 2," Reni presents the saint in a moment of transcendent suffering, his gaze turned heavenward, imbuing the work with a sense of piety and divine grace. The artist's mastery of chiaroscuro—a technique that employs strong contrasts between light and dark—enhances the three-dimensional quality of the figure and highlights the saint's muscular form and the texture of his skin, punctuated by the wounds of the arrows. Reni's delicate handling of color and his ability to convey the softness of flesh against the harshness of the saint's ordeal are particularly admired in this painting.

The work is emblematic of Reni's skill in combining classical ideals of beauty with the emotional depth characteristic of the Counter-Reformation, which sought to reinvigorate Catholic faith through art that appealed directly to the senses and emotions of the viewer. "Saint Sebastian 2" not only serves as a testament to Reni's artistic prowess but also provides insight into the religious and cultural milieu of the time. The painting remains an important piece in the oeuvre of Guido Reni and continues to be studied for its aesthetic and historical significance.
